«Oh, God no,» he told the Telegraph when asked about the possibility. «I mean, to me, that’s outrageous. Especially since it’s a good movie. It’s like saying’Let’s remake Citizen Kane. Who are we going to get to play Kane?’ What folly, what insanity is that? Why would anyone do that?»
Co-writer and co-rights holder Bob Gale agrees with Zemeckis, and both claim they’ll never sign off on a remake as long as they live. Zemeckis is hopeful that his estate will find a way to block its production even after his eventual death.
«That can’t happen until both Bob and I are dead. And then I’m sure they’ll do it, unless there’s a way our estates can stop it,» he said.
Zemeckis acknowledges it’d be an instant hit and would make sense financially, but he and Gale both fear that a remake would not remain true to the original film in the way that its dedicated fan base would appreciate — particularly with the absence of Marty McFly actor Michael J. Fox, whose acting career has been limited due to Parkinson’s disease.
That hasn’t stopped us from dreaming, however, and you can watch a trailer of IGN’s dream Back to the Future remake starring action star Vin Diesel.
